Paragraph 19
Motion for a resolution
Amendment
19. Calls, in light of the need for greater pressure on Russia, for increased and more comprehensive and structural sanctions against Russia and its allies, with the aim of depriving it of resources necessary to finance its military machine and sustain its aggression against Ukraine, including targeted individual sanctions under the EU Global Human Rights and Sanctions Regime (EU Magnitsky Act) against those responsible for grave human rights violations; calls for greater alignment of sanctions lists with those of like-minded partners; strongly calls for increased administrative capacity and financial resources to improve design, implementation and enforcement of EU sanctions; insists that no sanctions should be lifted before a peace agreement is negotiated and sustainably implemented; calls on the Council and the Member States to systematically tackle the issue of sanctions circumvention; emphasises that sanctions are having a clear impact on the Russian economy, but reiterates that the sanctions regime needs to be broader and its implementation stricter if it is to have the required effect of limiting Russia’s funds for its war of aggression; calls, therefore, for the reinforcement and expansion of sanctions targeting Russia’s primary sources of revenue, including but not limited to the energy, raw materials, financial and transport sectors; calls for the EU and its Member States to work in a coordinated manner towards banning trade and commercial activities with Russia and Belarus, paying particular attention to goods and technologies with potential dual-use applications, and to prohibit the transit of goods to and from the Union via their territories; calls for a full ban on Russian steel products;

Motion for a resolution
Paragraph 32 a (new)
Motion for a resolution
Amendment
32a. Underlines the importance of good neighbourly relations between Poland and Ukraine, in particular against the backdrop of Russia’s continued war of aggression against Ukraine and Poland’s direct proximity to Ukraine and its role in ensuring EU support for Ukraine’s defence; recalls its previously adopted position on the Volhynia massacre; regrets the recent unnecessary and unprovoked escalation by President Volodymir Zelensky by renaming an elite military unit of the Ukrainian Armed Forces after the heroes of the Ukrainian Insurgent Army (UPA); regrets the disregard for Polish sensitivities and grief related to the UPA’s countless victims and their families, especially in the light of Poland’s steadfast support for Ukraine’s fight against Russian aggression; considers that this decision harms neighbourly relations and previous efforts to address unresolved and painful aspects of bilateral historical relations in a spirit of true and sincere reconciliation; calls for de-escalation and renewed efforts in good faith towards reconciliation;
